10 Things You Should Do If You Want To Succeed On FarmVille

Here are 10 things you should always avoid if you are serious about really succeeding in Farmville :

1. Don’t buy buildings too early. Buildings will cost you a heck of a lot of coins, but they don’t provide you with any ways of making your coins back (other than earning some ribbons of course). The good thing about buildings is that they gain experience, which is only good if you have some spare coins lying around – but if you don’t have the luxury of having spare cash available, they will be a drain to your supplies.

2. Don’t buy more decorations, you probably don’t even need them. The same thing applies here as with buildings; decorations are just for looks, gaining experience and earning ribbons. But again if you are after more cash, they won’t offer you any. If you do have some cash handy though, decorations can be a good source of easy ribbons.

3. Farm cash is limited, so be wise about where you spend it. Things like fuel refills can speed things up for you, but once they are gone, they are gone. Buildings and decorations are permanent and can be good investments, but only if you have enough spare coins.

4. Don’t purchase seeds that will give you a poor cost-to-profit ratio. Crops that will only give you a bit of profit are a waste of your time and investment. Play around a bit to see which crops give you the best return on your investment, taking into consideration also how long you spend playing and how quick you want to see results.

5. Don’t manually plow, seed or harvest. To make things easier and quicker for yourself, use the appropriate machinery to do this for you. Unless you really like to be clicking 4 times longer than you really should be go with the more automated option.

6. Be smart with your animals. Unless you enjoy manually collecting what they offer, they can be a barrier to you succeeding if they take up too much of your time. Use them for what they should be used for, earning ribbons and then selling them for a higher price.

7. Wait until you have enough spare coins to expand your farm. You should always be looking to expand your farm, but do so when you also have enough coins to invest in crops to fill the extra land. It will be a waste if you expand only to find that you don’t have enough cash to fill it with crops that will give you something back.

8. Don’t help neighbours out unnecessarily. If you want to help them out, do so until you earn your ribbon. Don’t waste your time with them and get little in return. You should be focusing on getting good returns for the time and cash you invest.

9. Maximize your fuel. Your fuel will refill every few minutes, so plan your playing time to make the most out of this. If you’re absolutely obsessed you won’t have problems with going on at least once every couple of hours to use your fuel effectively.

10. Focus on your land, not how it looks. If you are serious about succeeding in Farmville you need to cover your lot with plowed land and get the most return for your money. Don’t waste your time, use it efficiently.
